"You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."
obama probably had his heart in the right place when he started, but clearly he's not the same person who conned us into voting him in office. everything he said was a lie (everything that mattered or pertained to our privacy, true security and loss of rights during the 'bushing down' of america.
regardless of what he was like beforehand, he's now useless and has been taken over by corruption and power ;(
I submit that there is not a single human being, alive or dead, that can stay true to their promise of integrity AND be in the highest power office in the world. its not possible, its not do-able and we should stop expecting it. abs power corrupts absolutely, we all know this and we can see it, first-hand.
we have 2 problems and I don't see either one being fixable. first is what I just listed - that no one can be in that office and not be corrupted in short order; and the other problem is that people are being lied to, they are not being told the truth and they are brainwashed from early youth to 'fight on teams' and to pick a team and fight for them. this 'great distraction' keeps us chattering and Our Masters(tm) love that we are kept distracted this way. we generally don't believe that abs power corrupts absolutely, we refuse to believe 'our guy' could be taken over like that and so we continue to play tribal us-vs-them games.
the people are kept stupid, the leaders enrich themselves at our expensve and there is no fix in sight.
welcome to planet earth. this is a form of hell, here, not heaven. oh, and there is no heaven, that's another lie told to keep you in-line and behaved.
